Only Fools & Horses Only Fools & Horses "The Glue That Holds Us Together" by James Klonowski [email protected] FADE IN: INT. TROTTER'S FLAT. LOUNGE - MORNING The flat is filled with an array of their latest dodgy deals. A stack of games consoles labelled rejects. Water-coloured paintings which have been water damaged. And boxes of "Trotter Glue". Laying on the sofa playing some ultra-violent video game is DAMIEN. The volume is rather deafening. DEL enters, yawning, wearing such a vibrant colour of yellow dressing gown that it could be used to paint signs in a tunnel. DEL. Gordon Bennett, Damien! I can't hear myself think with that bleeding thing on. Turn it down or turn it bloody off! DAMIEN. Sorry, dad. I'm on the last level, I won't be much longer. DEL. Very well. What you doing up so early anyway? It's only half past six. We don't usually see you before noon. DAMIEN. Well actually, I ain't been to bed. This game is too good. DEL. You've gotta stop that, Damien. It ain't normal to be up all night. DAMIEN. Uncle Rodney said you were always up all night when you were young. DEL. Yes, but I was out pulling birds. DAMIEN. So, you got any tips for me to pull the chicks then? DEL. Of course I do, what do you take me for? First rule is never buy the first drink, that could get messy. Secondly, never get lumbered with the fat bird. RAQUEL O.O.S. Oh really? 2. Del spins around to see RAQUEL standing in the doorway. DEL. Good morning, sweetheart. Would you like a cup of tea? RAQUEL. Never mind that, Trotter. I don't want you giving Damien bad advice. DEL. No I wasn't. All I meant was he shouldn't be up all night playing those ridiculous video games, that's all. (off Raquel's look) Okay, I'll stop sharing my years of wisdom with him. RAQUEL. That would be a good start. Now we're up we might as well get on with things. DEL. Yeah, you're right love. Those dishes won't wash themselves. RAQUEL. I was actually talking about setting a date to renew our wedding vows. DEL. Ah, of course. Still can't believe it's been eleven years since I made an honest woman of you. RAQUEL. That's because it's been fourteen. DEL. (lying) I knew that. (then) I'll go put the kettle on. He exits to the kitchen. RAQUEL. Can I rely on you today, Derek? DEL. (O.O.S) I just gotta pop down the Nag's Head to complete a deal, then I'm all yours, sweetheart. 3. RAQUEL. Good, because I thought we'd go into town and get everything sorted. DEL. (O.O.S) Sounds good to me, love. I just need to meet with a business associate first. Got a feeling this Trotter Glue is gonna be the making of us. RAQUEL. Del, how on earth is that gonna happen? The bottles are glued bloody shut! DEL. (O.O.S) That just goes to show how powerful the stuff is. He re-enters from the kitchen carrying two mugs of tea. RAQUEL. (taking a cup) Thanks. (then) Have you heard from Rodney? DEL. Hardly, it's only six bloody thirty. RAQUEL. I meant lately. Cassandra said he's been acting weird. DEL. It's Rodney, if he wasn't acting weird there'd be a problem. RAQUEL. Well try and talk to him, Del. See if you can find out what's going on. DEL. I give up with him, I really do. I've been looking after him all his life, it's about time he stood on his own two feet for once. RAQUEL. You don't mean that. He's your brother and always will be. You can't deny that, Del. He looks up to you like a father. And if something's bothering him, it's (MORE) 4. RAQUEL. (cont'd) only you he's going to tell. So get dressed and go talk to him. DEL. Maybe it's for the best that he starts to stand on his own two feet. Stop relying on me. I mean, I ain't gonna be around forever. RAQUEL. You're going to speak to him and that's the end of it, Derek. Now stop acting like a child and go get changed. DEL. Maybe you should stop worrying about Rodney and start worrying about our eighteen-year-old son staying up all night, every night. RAQUEL. Damien's twenty five. DEL. Is he? When did that happen? (then) Anyway, I'm too busy to speak to that plonker today. I've got very important business deals to seal. RAQUEL. Oh will you stop with your business deals, Derek! It's because of your business deals that we have debts up to our eyeballs, and why you've squandered a life changing amount of money.... Twice! DEL. (insulted) First of all, it wasn't my fault the stock market crashed. And second of all, I haven't squandered anything. I invested Uncle Albert's money in this glue, which will make us millionaires. You just gotta have a little faith and patience, sweetheart. RAQUEL. And you've gotta start living in the real world, Del. All this wheeling and dealing don't work, haven't you realised that yet? 5. DEL. Now that hurts, Raquel. Everything we've had, have and ever likely to have has come from my wheeling and dealing and business foresight. RAQUEL. Fantastic. I'm glad someone's owned up. DEL. And what exactly is that supposed to mean? RAQUEL. Look around, Del. What do we have exactly? We live in this poxy flat surrounded by over two hundred neighbours and thirty floors from the ground! The TV's on the blink, the sofa has more springs in it than Zebedee, and every time the door knocks we have to switch everything off in case it's the bailiffs! DEL. And you're welcome for all that. Then the TV suddenly blows up. DAMIEN. Nooooo! I was nearly finished! God, I hate this place! He storms off into his bedroom, slamming the door behind him. As he does so, a painting falls off the wall and smashes on the floor. Raquel stares at Del. DEL. What? INT. RODNEY & CASSANDRA'S FLAT. KITCHEN - SHORT TIME LATER RODNEY, in his pjs, is childishly opening and slamming shut the cupboard doors, presumably looking for some breakfast. CASSANDRA enters, looking tired and highly unamused. CASSANDRA. (sarcastic) Could you try and make some more noise, Rodney? I think there's someone in Cardiff who you haven't quite woken up yet. RODNEY. Why ain't there ever anything decent to eat in this place? 6. CASSANDRA. You're acting like a big kid again. What the hell's wrong with you? RODNEY. Nothing's the matter with me. I just want some breakfast, is that too much to ask? (then) I'm fed up of all this. I mean, what's it all about, eh? CASSANDRA. Right, that's it, Rodney. Come on, start talking to me. Lately, you've been like Mrs. Maguire's newsagents on the corner - you never open up. I'm your wife, if you can't tell me what's bothering you, then who can you tell? RODNEY. Oh, I don't know. I'm just tired of things never working out, that's all. When is our luck gonna change, eh? When is something good gonna happen to us? CASSANDRA. What you on about, Rodney? We both have good jobs, and we have a beautiful daughter. If that doesn't make you happy, then what will? RODNEY. It's got nothing to do with Joan. I think the world of her, you know I do. I'd do anything for her, but that's the problem ain't it? CASSANDRA. And what problem is that exactly? Rodney, you're an amazing dad. And husband, when you're not acting like a baby who's lost his dummy. RODNEY. Oh, I can't do this, Cassandra. I'm going down the cafe for some decent grub... And company! He exits, leaving Cassandra standing there alone with her thoughts. Moments later, Rodney re-enters. RODNEY. I just gotta get changed first. 7. INT. CAFE - LATER Rodney walks into the cafe, sees Del seated at a table with a briefcase by his side, turns and goes to leave. DEL. Oi, Rodders, over here! Come on, I got a bacon sarnie with your name on it. Rodney thinks this over. On the hand one, he doesn't want to speak to Del, but on the other, he is bloody starving! He decides to let his stomach do the talking and sits with Del. DEL. There you go, you know it makes sense. Here, get this down you. Del hands Rodney the sandwich. Rodney doesn't need to be asked twice, as he begins to wolf the entire thing down in a matter of seconds. DEL. Bloody hell Rodney, slow down. RODNEY. Sorry Del, but I'm starving. I ain't had a decent meal in days. DEL. You still ain't. That thing is full of grease, fat, and God knows what else. RODNEY. Well, it tastes good to me. After a brief pause, Del speaks up... DEL. So, what's been going on then, bruv? You can tell me. RODNEY. There's nothing wrong with me, alright?! I'm just a little stressed, that's all.

  • Options Advice Matthew Thompson & Ro Bartram
    February 2020 Issue School Newspaper Options Advice Matthew Thompson & Ro Bartram For the Year 9’s, the time has come for them to choose their GCSE’s. This is the first time you can make a choice about your education and it is important that you make these choices wisely as to not waste the next two years. If you are lucky enough to have a career focus already, this is a great opportunity to pick the GCSE options which best suit this and invest your time and effort into that. On the other hand, if you are clueless in regards to your career, all hope is not lost, as even A-level students do not yet know where they will go next. During GCSE’s it is recommended that you pick at least two that you enjoy, as it will become increasingly harder to motivate yourself if you pick options which you quite frankly couldn't care less about. You mustn’t let others influence what subjects you pick. Not your teachers, not your friends and not your parents. THIS IS ABOUT YOU. To stop you from picking subjects based purely on what the teachers say to you, talk to the older years about what the subjects entail as they will have the experience and be able to tell you unbiased accounts of what they are like. We are more than happy to give the insight that we wish we had from older years when we were at this stage. If disaster strikes and the blocks do not allow you to take the options you want, there are still ways around this.

  • How Authored Children's Classics Retain Cultural
    A PICTURE VS. A THOUSAND WORDS: HOW AUTHORED CHILDREN’S CLASSICS RETAIN CULTURAL RELEVANCY THROUGH BRITISH TELEVISION ADAPTATIONS by Sarah K. Crotzer A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in English Thesis Committee: Dr. Jennifer Marchant, Chair Dr. Martha Hixon Dr. Tom Strawman ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would not have completed this thesis without the support and assistance of a great many people. Drs. Jennifer Marchant and Martha Hixon were the best mentors I could have asked for: enthusiastic when I needed a push, patient when I asked a thousand questions at once, and willing to tell me when it was time to let it go. I had a whole team of “you will crush this” ninjas, led first and foremost by David LeDoux – his time is worth a thousand pounds a minute! I was also buoyed up and occasionally calmed down by Gary Gravely, Aaron Shapiro, Agapi Theodorou-Shapiro, and my minion, Tom Cruz. Finally, I owe a huge debt of gratitude to my parents, Barbara and Harry Crotzer, for listening to many, many speeches by Toad over the years. Perhaps now it’s time to take up motoring, instead. ii ABSTRACT Certain classic children’s stories have transcended the generations to become cultural icons over a century after their publication. The endless adaptation and reinvention that creates iconography can be both assistance and obstruction to the preservation of authored stories which, unlike classic oral folk tales, were originally composed to a specific and unchanging design. This thesis examines how certain classic stories – Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Snow Queen,” Kenneth Grahame’s The Wind in the Willows, and Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass – have been transmuted from set, authored texts to collections of representative elements with wide cultural applications.

Orphaned at a young age, Jane is placed in the care of her wealthy aunt Mrs Reed, who neglects her in favour of her own three spoiled children. Jane is branded a liar, and Mrs Reed sends her to the grim and joyless Lowood School where she stays until she is 19. Determined to make the best of her life, Jane takes a position as a governess at Thornfield Hall, the home of the alluring and unpredictable Edward Rochester. It is here that Jane’s journey into the world, and as a woman, begins. Writer Sandy Welch (North And South, Magnificent Seven), producer Diederick Santer (Shakespeare Retold – Much Ado About Nothing) and director Susanna White (Bleak House) join forces to bring this ever-popular tale of passion, colour, madness and gothic horror to BBC One. Producer Diederick Santer says: “Sandy’s brand-new adaptation brings to life Jane’s inner world with beauty, humour and, at times, great sadness. We hope that her original take on the story will be enjoyed as much by long- term fans of the book as by those who have never read it.” The serial also stars Francesca Annis as Lady Ingram, Christina Cole as Blanche Ingram, Lorraine Ashbourne as Mrs Fairfax, Pam Ferris as Grace Poole and Tara Fitzgerald as Mrs Reed.

  • 'Clothed in Christ' Preacher
    TRINITY 18 2020 (Year A) – Matthew 22: 1-14; Philippians 4: 1-9 – ‘Clothed in Christ’ Preacher: Reverend Jane Quinton Curate So have you ever turned up somewhere under-dressed, over-dressed, or even totally wrongly dressed….? I am reminded of the episode from ‘Only Fools and Horses’ where Del boy and Rodney are invited to a fancy dress party for landlord Harry Malcolm, an occasion for which Del boy purchases a Batman and Robin outfit for them – however, on the evening of the party they arrive, bursting through the door and singing the Batman theme, only to find that everyone else is dressed in black mourning clothes and looking very sombre – unfortunately Harry has actually died the day before and so the party has become a wake instead! Now other than just wanting to provide a vivid image of someone being dressed in inappropriate clothing, there is no other similarity between this example from Only Fools and Horses and the parable that Jesus tells in Matthew’s gospel. Or the second part of the parable anyway – because this is in fact a parable of 2 halves! (Or the amalgamation of 2 parables as is commonly thought). The parable’s main theme centres on a great wedding feast being held by a king for his son, (the King of course representing God, and Jesus His son.) The first half of the parable concentrates on those who are invited to this feast, whilst the second half focusses on the clothing required in order to be able to remain and enjoy the feast.

Exemplary of this movement is the self-proclaimed ‘art terrorist’, Banksy, who has earned a reputation recently for his audacious interventions into some of the most significant art institutions in the western world, as well as for his politically charged stencil and sculptural work in the everyday spaces of the city. Focusing on the artist’s Peckham Rock, a fragment of concrete that he surreptitiously stuck to the walls of the British Museum in May 2005, this article uses the methodological device of ‘the journey’ in an attempt to place the connections and disconnections between a series of elite and institutional spaces, social relations and mediascapes through which ‘the rock’ passes as its ‘life’ as an artwork unfolds.
